A MOTHER’S Day sale at St Peter’s Primary School in Portishead proved a hit with pupils.

More than �200 was raised at the popular event which involves trays being filled with goodies, wrapped and decorated. Pupils were then able to buy great gifts for their mums for just �1 per tray at an after school sale. School Association chairman Sophie Pasley said: “This is one of the children’s favourite events. Youngsters can do their shopping for mum cheaply and independently and the school benefits from the proceeds.”
